Ferrari Must Step In After Leclerc-Hamilton Clash

Former F1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya believes Ferrari's senior management must intervene to establish clear driver boundaries after the opening lap clash between Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc at the Italian Grand Prix.

Ferrari endured a disappointing home race at Monza, round 13 of the 2026 championship, as Mercedes secured a 1-2 finish while the Italian team struggled with internal driver relations. Montoya's comments highlight the growing tensions between Ferrari's drivers that require immediate attention from Maranello's senior management.

The Monza incident follows a pattern of on-track friction between Leclerc and Hamilton, with Montoya suggesting that Ferrari needs to take decisive action to prevent further conflicts that could harm the team's championship aspirations. afsport.lat
